Course Description:

An Introduction to Core Java programming is a step-by-step introduction to OOP using the 

Java language which will help students to get up and running with object-oriented programming (OOP) and real-world application development using the Java language and platform. The Course begins with an overview of the Java platform and language, followed by instructions for setting up a development environment and the Eclipse IDE.  This course covers basic coding to algorithm design, Java architecture, Classes and object, learning in depth object oriented programming features, implementation hiding, data hiding, data type, iterative programming, File I/O. Junit and testNG testing Framework will be used to perform unit testing. GitHub will be used as a versioning system. Eclipse and Intellij will also be used as IDE.
